My uncle fought in the Battle of the Bulge...
He was lucky to survive = but suffered from. SEVERE PTSD
for 32 years until he died.
Very sad as he was a very kind gentle hard working man

@dennissvitak5475

Patton marched his troops 110 miles in 72 hours, and then fought a major battle, a feat never done before in history for an army that size to WALK that distance. Stunning achievement.

@peterzavon3012

Talk of the Allies being at disadvantage in the air because they lacked jet aircraft is ridiculous. Germany had only a few, early jet aircraft, never deployed in a way to truly disadvantage their opposition.

I Read book called Windswept Lies of War a few nights ago and still can’t shake it. Some truths cut deep when you’re not ready for them.

@rudyyarbrough5122

It sounds like this narrator is astonished that the American troops won the final battle. He pointed out every loss by all American units with no mention of any German losses.

@Matthew118

To put into words the gratitude, thanks and appreciation we have for the Allied Soldiers who fought and died for us in these Nightmare battles, is difficult to do. We owe them everything.

I'm 67yo and studied much of WW2 my whole life. So many things covered here I never knew. Doing the film in chronological order helps and put into perspective the magnitude of the actions in the short piece of the world. Well done. ❤

according to my Grandfather the SS would shoot their own troops right in front of them when they were trying to surrender My Grandfather was 76th infantry , his outfit were the first men to breach the Siegfried line and set foot on German soil. Shortly after that they were attached to Patton's 3rd army ,they were not part of Patton's army but attached to it. His out fit is referred to as the tip or point of Patton's spearhead across Germany, they were so far out in front that sometimes they would be taking enemy fire from the front and friendly fire from behind . the whole time fighting in freezing below zero weather and with very little to eat, Patton had told them they would have to live off the land, they took food, clothing and blankets off the Germans just to survive . He fought in many battles including the battle of 13 towns. That was where they took 13 towns in one day! They fought all the way across Germany to about 50 miles of what was then Czechoslovakia. He said he didnt go over there to be a hero he just wanted to get the job done and go home but he will always be my hero. rip WH Drummond

My Uncle Bob fought in the Ardennes/Battle of the Bulge and survived,, rest in Peace Bob....

@swanee22

Back in the 70s I happened to talk to a guy who had been in the Battle of the Bulge. He said it was so so cold...they had to tamp their feet constantly to do what they could to ward off frostbite. Hard to imagine what those guys went through with no let-up.

@jimmiller5147

My grandfather was in the Battle of the bulge. One of the things he used to do was clean out the remains of our soldiers when they were killed. My grandmother gave me his helmet from world war II and I wouldn't sell it for a million dollars

@bryansimmons1989

My great-uncle William Faulk served with the 212th Armored Field Artillery Battalion of the 6th Armored Division for its entire ETO campaign. He won the Silver Star at Bastogne. He would rarely talk about his military service and according to my grandmother had nightmares about the experience his whole life.

@robhutten4763

The airpower overview of the Germans was odd. The Stuka was still feared? By whom? Stuka pilots? No, the Stuka was completely obsolete and no longer used for years at that point. The Luftwaffe was so outnumbered by the allies at that point that it was not much of a factor anymore and the only air protection the Germans had was poor weather.

@SOKYRIDGERUNNER

My grandfather was in Patton’s Army and chased the Nazi’s across the Rhine!

@cherylhaugen1897

I was privileged to know one of Pattons men who told about walking that 200 miles in the winter in 2 days only to fight the Germans. Great and brave Americans! Determination and honor helped them win! No words can convey what the AMERICANS were able to do!

@ΦίλοςΤουΑλήθειας

Patton always respected his enemy but always considered him flawed. He was the perfect warrior.

@TS-ev1bl

The Allies owned the skies over the battlefields by this stage in the war. The German army's only hope was for bad weather, which they got for a short period of time but it didn't last for long. That aspect alone doomed the German offensive.

A joke among German soldiers around this phase of the war went something like this - "If you look up and see aircraft with a roundel, they're British. If you look up and see aircraft with a white star, they're American. If you look up and see no aircraft, they're ours."

@mlose50

Poorly edited and confused video. Talking about certain weapon systems and showing different weapons.

@DanielAlley

Interesting to hear the NAZI perspective on the Battle of the Bulge.

@TheLunacyofOurTimes

I don't have time to break this down. Jet aircraft was not really a thing that had any measurable impact.

You could have ended the video in about a minute by saying Germany didn't have the fuel.
